  1. I have a cpu33 that I had issues with a bad battery and it loaded from memory card.  The version on the card was old so I decided to download the latest version from 2 days ago to it.  When I did, I lost communication through ethernet.   Can't connect through usb either.   The thing that baffles me is that I can ping the plc at the address and I get a reply.   Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I am not familiar with omron plc's at all.  Also on the display it cycles through Er HE 1P 07.
  2. PC-PLC CP1E - USB-to-SERIAL cable

    Hi,   I have a self-bought usb-serial cable converter for CP1E. Currently can't connect to my PLC using PC. CX-One says "Failed to the PLC". I am supposedly to use "SYSMAC WAY" as my Network Type in PLC settings?   EDIT: The CPU type is N30   I've checked the following settings: 1) COM number is correct ( as checked from windows Device Manager side) 2) Cable driver is installed, there is no "unknown" driver in my windows Device Manager 3) My RS232C LED in PLC is not lighted up.   Any other suggestions to check settings ive missed out would help, other than buying a new cable for the moment.   Regards, Summerstone
  3. I recently purchased the SIEMENS CONNECTION KIT (6ES6400-1PC00-0AA0) with its corresponding serial cable to connect to a MICROMASTER 440. I connect my RS232-USB cable to the serial cable. But I can not connect in any way! What do I do wrong? 1. In the micromaster 440 I put the following USS configuration parameters (USS = serial communication):    p2010 = 6    p2011 = 0    p2012 = 2    p2013 = 127 2. I put the DIP of the Connection Kit (Ref. 6ES6400-1PC00-0AA0)  1 ON, 2 OFF, as indicated in the manual.    I connect the connection kit module with its serial cable to my RS232-USB cable. And I connect the USB to my PC. 3. Open "Set PG / PC interface" and select PC COM-Port.USS.1 4. I go to the properties and I am selected COM1 without problems. 5. But I do the transmission speed test and can not find anything. 6. Also in the diagnosis of PC COM-Port.USS.1 I do the test and can not find anything. Supposedly my RS232 cable is correct (I have tried several tests). And the configuration of the COM port in "device manager" also looks correct. What am I doing wrong?? Zhanks!

  5. Profibus Function Blocks for Q2ASCPU for Melsec ST Lite RIO inter-connection. Please assist in advising the attainment of such blocks - if any existing. Thanks
  6. Hi all, I will be starting on my MSc in automation in a couple of days so for that reason i have obtained a S7-1200 series 1211AC/DC/RLY PLC. This is a new area for me as i have been working in offshore since i graduated from my BSc a couple of years ago. I watched some Youtube tutorials on how the programming is done and i am ready to try it out for myself, but i have encountered a little problem.   Problem: I am using the X1 P1 PROFINET (LAN) port as a connection to my PC, this turns the Green Link light on and the Rx/Tx lights blinks orange. Now to the problem, i cannot connect to the PLC through the TIA portal, no matter what settings and connection types i use in the PG/PC interface box. I have had no luck finding leturature adressing how to configure the PC/software and get a connection to the PLC. Do any of you have a PDF or link which can help me through this problem?  Hardware: S7-1200 series 1211AC/DC/RLY 6ES7 211-BE40-0XB0 S C-J5PN 1614 2017 FS:05 Software: TIA Portal Version 13 STEP 7 Professional V13 WinCC Basic V13   Thanks   Best regards   Dennis    
  7. Hi all, I have a S7-1200 CPU 1214 DC DC DC and Cm 1241 6ES7241-1AH32-0XB0 communication module.I'm using TIA Portal 14 and i connected cpu but i couldn't connect cm 1241 communication module.When i looked diagnostic i saw" Diagnostics data are not available because the current online configuration data differ from the offline configuration data.".Then i looked for what was the difference.But i didn't see.Are there anyone can help me? Thank you
  8. Is CP1H with Ethernet option board (CP1W-CIF41) is capable to communicate More than one client? If yes what settings I need to be Done?  
  9. Dear all I am new please help me to find out how i can do electrical connection plus control of softstarter ATS48C48Q Schneider brand.I am using this softstarter for 200kw motor heavy duty.i need control this motor beacuse it is taking high torque at starting time.
  10. Good day  I require some assistance with the configuration setup (GX Works 3) for FX5u PLC inter-communication (PLC to PLC), over Ethernet (using the built-in Ethernet port). The purpose of the inter-connection is data exchange. (Values stored within the PLC storage registers such as words and bits).  Does anyone perhaps support files on this such as a procedure or example? Thanks
  11. In general, this control PLC program is written in GX Works. I did a simple visualization on TIA Portal v14 (WinCC RT Advanced) and I would like to now test it on Mitsubishi FX3U driver with ENET Module. I do not have much experience in this kind of thing, I'm still learning. I know that someone previously made a visualization in LabView and downloaded the tags from the PLC using NI OPC Server. Someone also did visualization in iFix and also downloaded tags through server opc. I do not know just how or what program to download tags in PLC so that I can no longer use it in visualization in TIA Portal. Unfortunately I still have a connection problem. The driver is connected to the router. From the connection options with RT Advanced I chose in the connections tab Mitsubishi and entered the appropriate IP. Still nothing. I do not know if the lack of a connection can be related to a virtual machine (VM Vare Workstation 12) on which I have TIA Portal installed. The driver pings but can not connect. I also tried using KEPServer EX to connect and unfortunately also failed. (I have information about the can not connect). Anyone know what program I should use? or had contact with such a problem? I attach a photo of communication from my station to more visualize the problem. Thanks  
  12. Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to limit the number of allowed on-line connections at a time to a PLC? Like can you somehow set in the PLC parameters that only 1 'connection' can be on-line in the device at a time? Thanks Edit: I'm referring to connections from the TIA portal - not HMI / ethernet connections and so forth

  14. q04udeh&qj71c24n-r4

    Hello everyone. i use q04udeh cpu and     rs-485 qj71c24n-r4 communication module. I  try to receive information from external device(2000amp power supply). im not a professional plc guy. On that moment i get MSG_RECV_String[7],  and store them in separate buffer from K1B108 to K1B120. i skip one because i do not need that k4B100 , and start from k1B108. I want to show value Voltsx10, but i need some help to do it. when i change value i see numbers from each separate MOV block function, but i can not convert them to decimal.(or i do not know how to do it). When i try BIN command i have error message 4100. Thank you for any suggestions.

  16. FX2N-4AD

    Dear Friends; Today i am stuck and do not understand how i fix the following issue? 1. We have PH controller from Hannah Model HI 8711T , PH transmitter HI 8614L and PH probe. On the terminal blocks of the controller there are  4-20mA (Isolated).  2. We have FX 2N-4AD analogue module to read the PH value on the HMI. 3. First i connect the 4-20 mA as follows Short the V+and I+ terminals and connected it to the -ve of the controller 4-20mA terminal. I- connect withe the -ve of 24 VDC. and +24 applied to the +ve of controller 4-20mA terminal. But the reading not read by the controller. Then i change the wiring as follows Short the V+and I+ terminals and connected it to the +ve of the controller 4-20mA terminal. I- terminal connected to the -ve of the controller 4-20 mA terminal. By this the reading is shown perfectly. But the issue is after 10 to 15 second all the values that is on the LCD of controller , transmitter and on HMI fluctuate. Even i connect and disconnet the shield on the Module side but the issue is not fixed. How i fix it, and guide me how i wire up properly FX2N-4AD with 4-20 mA isolated output of the controller?   Thanking you, I will remain

  19. Does anybody use it successfully? With what kind of RSLinx activation? I am using The Studio v28.00, which installed the v2.00 of the Tool and v 3.80.00 of the RSLinx. The latter is activated as Classic Single Node. I can see the processor in RSWho. The Tool fails to start, with the shown message. What may be wrong? Please, do not suggest links to the Rockwell articles that require the support contract, as we do not have such.
  20. Hi guys, I have tried almost everything and ran out of option on how can I successfully connect modicon m34020 processor using mini USB with unity pro, I am working in Windows 10 and selected everything possibly correct I can, like setting address to USB, and "SYS" in Set parameters, I have USBplc driver installed and it shows, "disconnected" and local and remote id emptly fields. In my device manager, I can see a question mark on the processor driver "BMX CPU" and when I try to update/upgrade/fix it it simply goes to nothing. While the Unity Pro shows the error "this isn't the right address or the plc is too busy or off". Please advise, if i am missing something. thanks in advance.

  22. Hi guys, I'm in the middle of a little university project, I'm attempting to implement a control system purely based on artificial intelligence. A neural network will be used to map the characteristics of a power plant. A fuzzy logic controller will be used instead of the conventional PID and finally a genetic algorithm will be used to tune the controller while the system is online. This is all simulated of course. Each of those AI's will be developed in Matlab. Only problem with that is, is it outputs the code in C or C++ (From memory). I would have to convert this to structured text (Based on Pascal). So to circumvent this problem I thought I would just directly interface matlab to the PLC (Schneiders M340).  My idea being, all the calculations are done in matlab which are then sent back to the PLC. However this presents me with a new problem of how I would be able to interface matlab to the PLC. If anyone has experience with this sort of connectivity, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance, Luchek
  23. Hi All I am new here without much experience of plcs. I have a PV 550 with DH485 coms port that I want to replace another PV550 with rs232 that communicated with an SLC 5/04. Is there some way to connect the two with a cable or protocol connector? Alternatively can you connect through the printer port on a PV600? CHeers   Azza
  24. Dear Experts!!! Actually i have two problems : 1.    I want to change the object (FT View SE v8.0) property to "VBA controlled". But its not allowing me to do it,  like as you can see on the pic.   2.    I want to make an array of objects in FT View like as shown in the pic (Image of VB form): the object name is azul and the index is 0 so the object shown in the pic is azul(0) VB Form code is : Private Sub Form_Load() Dim i As Integer For i = 1 To 224 Load gris(i) azul(i).Visible = True Next i azul(0).Visible = True For i = 0 To 224 azul(i).Top = gris(0).Top azul(i).Width = gris(0).Width Next i For i = 0 To 224 azul(i).Left = azul(0).Left + i * azul(0).Width Next i End Sub As you can clearly see in VB code I have created one object only, but rest of the objects are being created by Code only I want to do the same thing in FT View SE v8.0 Please please help!!!!!
  25. I am trying to use the Tag Data Monitor Tool to create views for the different tags on my 1756-L73. When I try to connect (with the remote name the same as the Path that I use in RSLogix), and select "RSLinx OPC Server" as my OPC server and click connect I get the error window shown in the screenshot (http://i.imgur.com/JoCDvPo.png). I've done quite the extensive googlefu on anything containing the error "funConnectServer" and can find zero information as to why that would be happening. Am I missing something obvious? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
